Wine lovers, did you know Memorial Day Weekend coincides with National Wine Day on May 25? Houston bars can open at 25% capacity, while restaurants can open at 50% capacity, so treat yourself to a glass of your favorite vino in the Memorial District.
Locally owned Ciro's Italian Grill offers exquisite wines that you can pair with pasta or pizza. For example, the Brunello or Super Tuscan pair well with a portion of pasta. Ciro's recommends pairing its Parmagiana Risotto with a bottle of red wine. Also, ask about getting 50% off a bottle of wine with your to-go orders.
For steak, enjoy a Cabernet Sauvignon or Zinfandel with your dinner at Perry's Steakhouse or Fleming's Prime Steakhouse and Wine Bar. Or try wines from South America, such as Malbec or Tannat, at Sal Y Pimienta and Texas de Brazil, which have delightful South American steak dinners.
Similarly, at Churrascos, ask about adding a sangria kit to your meal order. For $15.95, get a bottle of red wine and sangria mix. Check out the to-go family pack for four people. For $59.95, get two entrees, a salad, and two desserts. Plus, get 50% off a bottle of wine with any food order.
Also, check out the wine selection at Escalante's at Town and Country Village. See the To-Go menu for deals on wines. Over at Season's 52, you can pair a Pinot Noir or Sauvignon Blanc with the seasonal menu.
Then, visit Radio Milano and try a Nebbiolo or Port. Also, if you book a room at The Moran Hotel CityCentre for Memorial Day Weekend, you get 30% off your room and receive a free drink with dinner at Radio Milano. Call the Moran for details.
The Tasting Room offers happy hour seven days a week from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. You could get a delicious hummus platter and pair it with your choice or red or white wine. The Tasting Room recommends a crisp pinot grigio or a bold pinot noir!
